ATTN:Bride Gias Low Max and Bride Cuga owners.

guesswhoou812 · 08-18-2009, 09:20 PM

Hey guys, basically i'm torn between the two seats. I love the way the Bride Cuga looks, but I hear the Gias low max holds you better. So who on here actually owns a set of either. Pros/Cons?

What is your pants size/weight/etc? How will you be using the car?

Ive gone through both sets.. i prefer the Gias because of the side supports. They are high up there and keeps you snugged in. But i would only I recommend gias if you are around 36 waist and under as the seat might get a little tight and uncomfortable through long drives. Also Gias has the new reclinable system which you dont have to turn the knob 50 times to get a 15degree turn -_-

The Cuga is a more comfortable seat that isnt too tight around your bottoms but still holds you in, and is alot more easier to get out of then the gias. This seat is more suitable for a daily driver as the gias is more for competition(gias was built as a bucket/reclinable)

Theres more option with the gias then the cuga as you get to choose the height of the sides with the gias

i have the gias, the old recling style. I love it. It's great because you can adjust it at a comfortable angle for daily driving and then you can tilt it up for track days. It holds extremely well at track events and is the most comfortable seat i sat in when it comes to track seats. I liked it better than all the sparco or recaro seats i sat in. On a side note, i had one for the passanger seat but the girlfriend hated it.

I am about a size 34 waist and alomost 6" tall. Seems like it will be the Gias.

Quite possibly, you would have to get the Stradia's instead. But the Cuga would be a better seat.

To the OP I like the Gias alot better than the Cuga's. But after next year ill prob end up getting a pair of Cugas just because they're more comfortable.
